Recently moved to a home where our internet provider had never been installed.  The best set up (for the router) happened to be our entryway - same side as the door.  With limited space we wanted something to place the router on but also store shoes.  This was the perfect piece.  It paired well with our present decor and was the just the right size.   Not too big, not too small.  In addition, the drawer made for a great spot to keep our dogs leashes  baggies.  Note My husband stated that it was easily assembled  took less than an hour... including a snack break  TV distraction.
